At The Oak Raleigh, we’ve elevated the experience with a menu that pairs scratch-made dishes with thoughtfully crafted brunch cocktails and one of the area’s finest bourbon selections.
Our brunch bar features guest favorites like the Oak Old Fashioned, made with our signature house-aged bourbon blend, alongside refreshing Mimosas, Bourbon Bloody Marys, and other handcrafted cocktails that make Sunday mornings feel like a celebration. Whether you prefer classic bourbon flavors or something bright and refreshing, every cocktail is made with premium ingredients and balanced to complement your meal.
If you’ve been wondering where to enjoy a brunch that’s just as memorable for the drinks as it is for the food, you’ve found it.
Sweet or Savory? Why Choose When You Can Have Both?
One of the best parts of brunch is deciding between sweet comfort food and savory favorites. At The Oak Raleigh, there isn’t a wrong answer.
Craving something sweet? Our Banana Foster French Toast starts with thick-cut Union Special brioche, topped with cinnamon sugar pecans and finished with warm banana maple syrup for an indulgent brunch classic.
Prefer something hearty? The Braised Short Rib Hash combines slow-braised short rib, roasted sweet potatoes, peppers, and onions, plus two sunny-side-up eggs, into a dish that’s rich, satisfying, and packed with flavor. For another savory favorite, our Meat Lover’s Omelette features house sausage, bacon, bourbon onion jam, smoked gouda, and creamy smoked gouda grits.
Other brunch favorites include:
- Truffle Mushroom Omelette with Fox Farm mushrooms and balsamic glaze
- Breakfast Burrito loaded with house sausage, bacon, gouda, and home fries
- Avocado Toast topped with two perfectly poached eggs
- Breakfast Burger featuring house-ground smash patty, American cheese, potato latke, bacon, and fried eggs
Every dish is prepared to order using fresh ingredients, giving you the quality of a scratch kitchen with the comfort of your favorite weekend meal.
